    I am planning to go for three weeks, possibly longer. There are actually two groups of us going, with two of us driving with plans to arrive 5 September, four guys going for last 10 days of September, and two others flying out and overlapping the middle. My plan is to once again pull my 24'...

    Your 2024 Elk Hunt

    I am planning on heading back to CO in September for up to 3 weeks with two friends. I went last year with a few guys who had gone on previous hunts but this year it will likely be three of us with me being the only one with experience (very limited). I turn 60 this year and with the upcoming...

    First Archery Elk Hunt

    Great story. I also went to CO for an Oct archery hunt. I just turned 59 and finally got to fulfill that bucket item. We also had numerous encounters but weren’t able to loose an arrow. It was one of my most enjoyable experiences. It was tough hunting and the terrain is no joke, but Lord...

    Virginia group chat/possible meet up?

    Welcome aboard. I’m from Chesapeake. For you south side guys, do any of you use a CRUZER XC saddle size 2? I would like to do a fit check before I pull the trigger. I currently have a Overwatch Transformer. Love the comfort of it but it’s heavier than the CRUZER.

    I'm 58 with numerous spine issues. This season was my first in the saddle and love it. I had assumed for a long time that a saddle would never work for me with my back issues. Boy was I wrong. I am using 4 hawk heliums with amsteel single step aiders on each. they work well but I plan to...

    Yes, I am close enough I hear colors from my house. I used to hunt the annex until it became a good old boys club running things so I quit going there. There are some nice ones there.

    Virginia group chat/possible meet up?

    I do, but dog country where gun comes in on Oct 1 with no early bow. Brown it goes down in front of the deer dogs. No chance for buck to mature. At least it’s a good turkey spot.

    First off, this has been my first year in the saddle. I’ve spent about 10 -4 hour sits and really like it. However, after nearly 40 years of bowhunting, I’ve decided to pull the plug. I have hunted nearly 100 days over the past 3 years and have not had the opportunity at a decent buck...
